Super Bowl XLIX: Lone wolf attacks big concern for law enforcement
GLENDALE, AZ - Lone wolf attacks are a big concern for law enforcement during Super Bowl XLIX.
Officials say they worry about terrorists who are not on their radar.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson says law enforcement monitors social media websites for threats as well as pay close attention to other terrorist attacks across the world.
Johnson visited Phoenix on Wednesday to review the security plan for the Super Bowl.
An excess of 4,000 law enforcement personnel have been brought in for the Super Bowl from city, state and federal levels.
More than two thousand cameras have been set up across the Valley to monitor any suspicious activity.
The cameras are routed into one operational hub in a command center, where information is shared with multiple agencies.
Johnson says there have been no credible threats yet. However, the public plays a key role is security for the Super Bowl.
Johnson talked about the DHS slogan called: “If You See Something, Say Something."
If citizens notice something odd or suspicious report it to law enforcement right away.
